Rogue Trooper
Catch A Glimpse Of The New Rogue In This Rogue Trooper Redux Character Spotlight

With Rebellion opening up the 2000AD license, it looks like things are already starting to pay off. Before an inevitable slew of other comic-based games show up, we're getting a remaster of the 2006 Rogue Trooper to tide us over.

Rogue Trooper - being a bio-engineers killing machine - is one of Rebellion's finest and most recognisable characters within the 2000AD comic universe. Despite that, they've released a 'Who is Rogue Trooper' video to cement him into the minds of others.

For the sake of personal clarity, here's the gist of things; Rogue is part of of a long line of 'Genetic Infantrymen'. Once created as part of a great army designed to survive the harsh environments of Nu Earth, Rogue is the last of his kind. Now hell-bent of avenging the lost of him comrades, he's embedded their biochips into his own powerful equipment - becoming a one-man army that's making sure his old squad gets the kill.

Today's new trailer demonstrates the first time we've seen Rogue Trooper in his new-found HD glory. Taking up a more traditional look commonly seen in the original 2000 AD comics, he's sporting higher geometry counts and in-game assets worthy of a 2017 title. It's more a remake than a remaster, but they're going in-between with the Redux name.
